Since I am so multi-talented (  ) I have decided to strart work on two scenarios at once. This one is based on Shay Yates Roberts' scenario for Civ2 'Pirates' I think that by using SLIC we can give this a great upgrade. You can play as a civ, that can build cities, research or anything, kind of like Magnificant Samauri, and your entire aim of the game is to make as much money as you can. I just just imagine it now, as you have your ships loaoded with generals, and brand new sea-fearing graphics (oh no, ggxx.spr problms there  ). Anyway I will start today. Post all comments!heardie
if anyone wants to see what i have done with the waterworld scenario mail dheardie@hotmail.com |

Slight change: changed from pirates to Robin Hood, so it can work on land. Basically the SLIc function wouldnt work at sea, but it worked on land. Anyway to make this project as open as possible here is the first SLIC, that creates random units when you walk (graciously taken from the Magnificant Samuari Scenario )
code:
if (Random(50) < attackChance) {
attackChance = 0;
int_t tmpRand;
int_t tmpRand2;
int_t tmpNum;
int_t i;
int_t tmpDist; location_t tmpLoc;
tmpNum = army[0].size * 2;
tmpDist = 1;
tmpLoc = army[0].location; //Find out how many units you have and spawn units accordingly.
tmpRand = Random(tmpNum) + 1; // Spawn between (1 and tmpNum) + 1 units for(i = 0; i < tmpNum; i = i + 1) {
tmpRand2 = Random(20); // Random type of bandit
if (tmpRand2 < 8) { // 40% chance of Bandit
CreateUnit(3, UnitDB(UNIT_BANDIT), tmpLoc, tmpDist);
} elseif (tmpRand2 >= 8 && tmpRand2 < 14) { // 30% chance of Bandit Horseman
CreateUnit(3, UnitDB(UNIT_BANDIT_HORSEMAN), tmpLoc, tmpDist);
} elseif (tmpRand2 >= 14 && tmpRand2 < 19) { // 25% chance of Bandit Archer
CreateUnit(3, UnitDB(UNIT_BANDIT_ARCHER), tmpLoc, tmpDist);
} elseif (tmpRand2 == 19) { // 5% chance of Bandit Musketeer
CreateUnit(3, UnitDB(UNIT_BANDIT_MUSKETEER), tmpLoc, tmpDist);
}
}
makeArmies(3);
Message (g.player, 'RHAmbush');
return STOP;
} else {
attackChance = attackChance + 1;
}
//}
}
The only strage thing was
isHumanPlayer[player0] was causing an error. Oh well. Please post all comments on this. The aim is to make money, but also to marry maid marion (though this will not be ripped from the allexander scenario and chilildren will not be involved  )heardie | |
